BALL x PIT Review
Review
Oct 15, 2025
BALL x PIT (pronounced Ball Pit) is just as fun as the ones you’d play in as a kid, except here there’s no chance of catching a disease from it. Not to be reductive, but this is essentially Breakout meets Vampire Survivors meets Stardew Valley, albeit with its own flavor and dressing. This is a game of endless combinations of builds and loadouts for an action roguelite with unique twists to keep you coming back for “just one more run”. In general, I think ‘addiction’ is too strong a word in almost any context, especially games. When it comes to BALL x PIT, it’s evident that it has all the hooks to be the next fixation to enter the zeitgeist.
FINAL FANTASY TACTICS – The Ivalice Chronicles Review
Review
Oct 14, 2025
I had this sort of a blank spot on what I like to call my “Strategy RPG (SRPG) history”: Final Fantasy Tactics. I played a bit of it back in the PlayStation 1 days but soft locked myself in a battle. Fast forward many years and I finally reached the ending in “War of the Lions” — the PSP re-release with added content and cinematics. I didn’t think much of it back then, it was a very good SRPG, but as someone who grew up playing PC games, especially Heroes of Might & Magic, it wasn’t my favorite “flavor” so to speak. It took me almost 20 years, and another part re-release, part remaster “Final Fantasy Tactics – The Ivalice Chronicles”, to finally understand how brilliant it is.
